A Dancing Fox, A New Dawn
–
Sunlight beckons, a new dawn’s day,
Chasing away the dark night’s grey.
.
Proud hills and white forests covered the eye,
A frozen world beneath a bold blue sky.
.
In this new dawn, there danced a white fox,
In glittering snow, and ice, and frost.
.
From tree to tree, from hill to hill,
The fox danced wherever she will.
.
Come dawn, come noon, the fox yet spun,
A dance of joy, a dance of fun.
.
Now marches on, the evening’s dark,
Does that free dance yet fall apart?
.
Nay, that white fox dances true,
From dawn to dusk, she begins anew.
.
And as the light yet fades to grey,
That fox prepares a new dawn’s day.
.

Life
–
Life is pretty rough, not always fair and not always fun,
Remember, my friend, that after darkness does come the Sun.
.
Look not to the darkness, send your eyes to the sky,
Best friend, smile, and think, the adventures we will fly!
.
For yes life can be rough, but it can also be great,
The mystery, the wonder, don’t tarry or be late!
.
Dance with a smile, spin with a grin,
Fight off the sad, know you will win!
.
I’ve got faith in you, shrimp, you’re a trooper, you are,
Things have been rough, but I know you’ll make it quite far.
.
So yes, fickle life, is it a dream or a curse?
Let the light in you grow, happy feelings do nurse!
